Help Changing Spider Gears

[jsucci]

I have a 95 gmc 1500 4x4. i just pulled the gears out of the rear end and now im trying to figure out how to get them out of the case and put the new ones in. any help would be helpful. thanks

anyone?

there should be a small 8mm bolt that holds the rod btw the spiders i do believ that you just pull that then the c clips and you should be able to just pull the spiders out

i got that bolt out and the axels out and everything out of the rear end but i cant get the spider gears themselves out. there is a rectangle shaped block in the center that the pin runs thru and 2 bars across the front of the case with something on them that look like they are spring loaded, not sure if they are some sort of lockers or what they are, im really not all that familiar with doing rear end work ill try to get a picture of it on here as soon as i can.

this is just my opinion so do with it what you like, and I am not trying to be mean. if you cant get the spider gears out is this something that you should really be doing, no offense but the rear end gear set up is very detail oriented. you cant take it out and then just put it back together or just put new gears in they need to be set right or they will grenade or wear very quickly. I personaly would let a professional do it as I dont have the patience anymore. you also need mics and calipers to set correctly. again just my opinion and good luck .

i did my dakota with no problem, just never done a set up like this before.

sorry man. as far as i know nothing accualy holds those gears in. i tryed searching the web but you've probably already done that. your next bext thing is to pm someone like MS3DALE who's a certified GM Mechanic

i havent seen anything on the internet or any manuals that i have like this, all ive ever seen are the ones that just have the bolt and the pin that comes out.
